Bill Heid • Da Girl

 

Review
by Scott Yanow
Organist Bill Heid has been around since the 1970s, but, although the sound he gets on his instrument hints at Jimmy Smith, he manages to largely escape that potentially dominant influence by coming up with fresh ideas, even when he plays a blues. His music swings, but sounds fairly individual. Heid is strongly assisted by the solo work of tenor saxophonist Scott Peterson and trumpeter Randy Magnarelli, with drummer Randy Gelespie and occasionally one of two percussionists giving stimulating support. Overall, this is a romping and spirited soul-jazz date from an organist who deserves to be much better known.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
El organista Bill Heid lleva desde los años 70, pero, aunque el sonido que consigue con su instrumento insinúa a Jimmy Smith, se las arregla para escapar en gran medida de esa influencia potencialmente dominante aportando ideas frescas, incluso cuando toca un blues. Su música se balancea, pero suena bastante individual. Heid está fuertemente asistido por el trabajo en solitario del saxofonista tenor Scott Peterson y el trompetista Randy Magnarelli, con el baterista Randy Gelespie y ocasionalmente uno de los dos percusionistas dando un apoyo estimulante. En general, se trata de una cita con el soul-jazz, alegre y enérgica, de un organista que merece ser mucho más conocido.
